Every single Senate Democrat just BLOCKED a GOP proposal requiring photo ID in nationwide elections

[LeftofLeft]

Not for free. I've noted this 25 times.

I have no problem with it being free. In fact, if there are voices yelling for free state issued IDs i will stand with them or ask for exemption for them if the state can’t deliver in a timely fashion.

Not what I've been discussing.

 

[jacksonlamb]

This is a states' rights issue.

 

[Conservative from Georgia]

This is who the Democrats are. They do not want fair and honest elections.

Yeah, I don’t think Americans emptying their debit cards at the gas station are thinking about photo IDs right now.

Now you care about gas prices?

 

[Conservative from Georgia]

Now you care about gas prices?

Now you don’t care about gas prices?

I do, but the Iranians can't close the strait forever. Biden on the other hand kept gas prices high and you Democrats loved it.

I'd go for that myself. Kinda surprised the SAVE Act doesn't have that in it. It takes the argument for disenfranchisement away from the democrats if it's free.

 

[OldFlame]

You have to pay for them. Has no one paid attention to the many court rulings over this?

If you have to buy an ID to vote, that then becomes a poll tax.

After calling the county clerks office, I called the secretary of states office. The lady I talked to told me she would call me back. That was two days ago.

No it doesn't.

Schumer also criticized the amendment for requiring voters to submit photocopies of IDs when submitting absentee ballots, arguing it would infringe on voters’ right to secrecy.

“The sacred secrecy of our ballot would be undone by this amendment,” he said. “Anyone who voted by mail would have to put a voter ID inside the envelope, and the board of elections would have to open it up and see how you voted,” he added. “It would violate basic privacy.”

Protecting the Anonymity of the Ballot​

The core privacy protection for voters is the “secret ballot,” a long-standing practice guaranteed by state constitutions and statutes. This principle shields the voter’s specific choice of candidate or issue from public knowledge or governmental recording. The secrecy of the ballot prevents intimidation, vote-buying, or coercion from employers or political groups, allowing a voter to cast a vote according to conscience.

Is there infrastructure to provide everyone that needs a photo ID one in the bill?

Photo IDs aren't a new thing, stupid. Not that difficult.

Keep pissing your depends.

That makes no sense at the mail in ballot packages are already QR/bar coded to an individual with PIF in the security envelope.

Including a photocopy of the ID fired not change that. But all that’s really needed is the type of ID, who issued it, and the ID number.

The REAL ID Act of 2005 does not mandate the indication of citizenship status on REAL ID's.

WW

You have to prove citizenship to get one.

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS- (A) IN GENERAL- To meet the requirements of this section, a State shall comply with the minimum standards of this paragraph. (B) EVIDENCE OF LAWFUL STATUS- A State shall require, before issuing a driver's license or identification card to a person, valid documentary evidence that the person-- (i) is a citizen or national of the United State

You own quote shows you don’t have to be a citizen.

You laugh...

Do you disagree that you own quote says that REAL ID is issued to aliens in a lawful status?

Here are two links to reports that show the facts:

Mail-in Voting: Myths vs. Facts
Our findings show that the vast majority of states (44) have constitutional provisions guaranteeing secrecy in voting, while the remaining states have statutory provisions referencing secrecy in voting. Despite that, 32 states allow some voters to transmit their ballots via the Internet which, given the limitations of current technology, eliminates the secrecy of the ballot. Twenty-eight of these states require the voter to sign a waiver of his or her right to a secret ballot. The remainder fail to acknowledge the issue.

I wasn't talking about mail-in voting.

I was talking about Schumer's idiotic idea that including a photo copy of an ID in a mail in ballot package being returned violated the concept of a secret vote because election officials would see the vote.

News flash for Senator Schumer, when a mail in ballot package is received the QR/Bar Code is scanned into the system which establishes the ID of the voter. Then the voters information (Name, Address, Signature, etc. (other identifying information required for that state). Once it passes security screening, the ballot is removed and at that time the election official is holding the voters identification information in one hand and the ballot in the other. The election official can see how that voter voted.

Cheaters who must cheat in order to have any chance to win
Now here is the Real Truth-Almost every single one of them already has an ID as there are dozens of every day life aspects that requires one . They TDS play themselves as the put upon parties forced into having an “extremely challenging to obtain” ID . They already have ID and it’s just another lying lib loon cryfest for illegals and criminals

 

[d0gbreath]

We've needed a photo ID to vote in Texas since 2013. It really is up to each individual state.
